Throw Away The Key- Serial Killer, Already On Death Row Faces 4 More Murders

Turner was sentenced to death in 2007 for killing 10 women,1 was 6months pregnant

One of L.A.'s most prolific serial killers, who's already on death row, will be in court Monday to be arraigned on murder charges in the deaths of four additional women.

44-year-old Chester Turner pleaded not guilty back in June to the murders of 30-year-old Cynthia Annette Johnson, 41-year-old Mary Edwards, 32-year-old Debra Williams and 33-year old Elandra Bunn.

But a judge ruled there at a preliminary hearing that there was enough evidence for Turner to stand trial in the additional cases
In the case of Edwards and Williams, another man was wrongfully convicted and imprisoned until 2004, when the DNA match to Turner was made.

Police say all four victims were strangled.

Turner was sentenced to death in 2007 for killing 10 women, including one who was six months pregnant between 1987 and 1998.
